d**********0 发帖数: 13081 | 6 俺和邻居家这边靠得比较近。 大概 5米? 中间的土壤随时间慢慢下沉, 导致这一
块比前院要低。 雨季来的时候, 这里就是一滩积水。 邻居家开sprinkle 后, 也是
一些积水。
今天往下挖, 才一寸的土壤下面, 就是粘土。
你这离墙几米, 你试着找几个点, 往下挖看看。 检查下土壤。 |

b*****x 发帖数: 3786 | 7 我们这里修 sprinkler system 是需要 licensed 的, 因为弄得不好,
sprinkle system 可以把脏水 backup to water system。 听说
没 license 去修会被罚得很重。
看你修来修去都没修好,去上一些课和考个 license 或许不是一个坏主意。 |

customer review 里关于leak 说了一大堆
但到现在我都不知道怎么弄出他们说的那个 loud snap
http://www.amazon.com/Hoover-SteamVac-Carpet-Cleaner-F5914-900/
If your new machine LEAKS, see note #2 below. I am just amazed at how many
people write that their machine leaked from day one, and they returned it.
It will leak if you skip a crucial one-time set-up step.

compare it to except my own expectations. Even though the ... 阅读全帖 |

x**********n 发帖数: 1262 | 22 由于前房东的sprinkle system坏了,后院有一些地方稀疏了, 好像也长不出来了
问了割草的老莫,他说不熟悉,可能需要新铺草皮。 前房东用的lawn service在
cancel之前来过一次,给补了一点草籽, 好像没啥效果(可能是没有及时浇水)
我看了一下,这个草应该是St. Augustine Grass, 网上说挺好蔓延的。
我想问问,一般需要买草皮来修补吗?或者自己撒种, home depot啥的有草籽卖吗?
叫啥名字?
第一次买房,第一次维护草坪,请老鸟指导,谢谢! |

b*******7 发帖数: 907 | 23 看了一下youtube,貌似不是很麻烦。所需工具一个air compressor和适当的转接头,
PSI要求不高,不超过50。这样HFT那个3Gal的带电一直充气的最小的compressor就可以
。 |
|
l*****e 发帖数: 123 | 24 It is very easy to do. But you have to buy a good air compressor. CFM is the
most important thing, not PSI. Just like you can not jump start your car
with 8 AA batteries. |

y***a 发帖数: 733 | 30 美国西北地区, 现在白天最高70,晚上40 左右。现在的后院中间种了一些玫瑰,周围
就是rock的小路,现在花也不开了,后院看着挺落败的。孩子们没法玩,想改草坪。
找了邻居推荐的老莫园艺公司,说1200尺左右的草坪,大概2天就弄好
草皮的价格:1200尺sod+运费 大约460块 另外还有土2yard(是不是太少)价格60。 估
计labor差不多500. 还有将现有的dripping变成sprinkling还需要钱,价格要周末才能
出来。
不知道现在换草坪好不好,有点担心冷,而且秋冬天孩子们出去玩得也少。但我们这儿
雨也比较多,铺完草坪,靠天浇水。 |

t*******r 发帖数: 238 | 34 You have to regrade your house surrounding in the long term. Both rain and
lawn sprinkle push water there, eventually, it will damage your house
foundation if you do not do anything.
Your neighbor has no responsibility here if he or she waters their lawn
every day. |

Removing Stains from Granite Countertops
If you have a stain on your granite countertop that you cannot remove you
can try some of these ideas:
Marker stains can often be wiped away using acetone or lacquer thinner,
especially on dark granite colors. If you have a light color granite
installed you can also try hydrogen peroxide instead.
A good way to remove stubborn granite stains is to use a poultice, which
will draw out the stain or oil from the granite into the poul... 阅读全帖 |

Q******o 发帖数: 718 | 36 PAINTED MANTELS: Often, much of the soot on painted mantels can be removed
by using a dry cleaning sponge, such as Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. Just rub in
small circles until soot disappears. For stubborn soot, mix a solution of
warm water and ammonia in a bucket---about 1 cup ammonia to gallon water is
the right proportion. Soak a clean rag in the solution, wring out excess,
and wipe mantel. Let dry, then repeat if necessary.

G***G 发帖数: 16778 | 37 try set two time there.
for example, 8:00PM

In this way, it will sprinkle at 8:00PM in the evening and then 6:00am in
the morning on the day you set. |

I only bought one fire extinguisher. It is expensive.
I use sprinkle system for lawn,
garden sprayer for vegetable I planted this spring,
and garden hose for prevention of small fire in case.
I still don't have good idea of how to protect the attic efficiently.
Maybe another extinguisher installed there?
or a long garden hose?

J***7 发帖数: 175 | 44 就sprinkle浇了个水 散个步回来就发现车库地上都漏的水 现在还在滴答 。
请问关了总闸 是不是得把water heater也关了啊?
估计是管道老化了 请问这个该找plumber还是装软水器的公司修呢?
多谢! |

q***s 发帖数: 172 | 45 爆的如果是软管,是去下水道的。其它的都是PVC管,不大可能爆。找local的plumber。
water softener有bypass,试一试。
water softener的水进sprinkle?既浪费又不好。 |

如何能避免sprinkler的damage吗? |
